Besides my boyfriend's comics here on Comic Fury, I went a short bit without subscribing to anything. Chopythes' "Heritage" was the first one I started reading because it caught my eye and I'm glad I decided to read it. A detective fantasy web comic!

Two best friends named Samuel Qruint and Timothy Tell who are on pretty opposite sides of things. Each chapter goes through different periods for the characters and those connected to them. Sam is a mystery throughout what I've read so far but that makes it intriguing to find out more about their character and past. And Tim has depth to him, too. Some terribly heartbreaking things happen in this series. But also good as we explore the past and present. We get demons, mystery, shapeshifting, dark secrets, death, an ongoing search, magic, glimpses into the past, chance meetings and so much more with each chapter.

The art of "Heritage" is beautiful, in black and white with different textures. We do get some bits of this comic in color (for an interesting little flashback!) and when we do it is also beautiful. Giving off an effect of what a painting looks like with a softness and a certain texture to it. The character designs are fun and different. I like how they have a cartoony look to them, but are still realistic in their own way. With good facial expressions and body language, it's easy to tell when and what they may be going through. When there is action and fighting it is done with grace and a sense of style. As I read my way through there were dramatic pauses and parts of the story where just a single image showed us readers what happened and that spoke volumes to me. The emotion put into this comic is nicely done.

So if you are looking for something new and creative to check out you should give Chopythes' "Heritage" a try. I feel like it's pretty binge worthy, with 8 chapters/sections up!

So yesterday marked week one for taking a new medication, Escitalopram oxalate to help with my depression and anxiety. My sleep was pretty terrible the first several days, but slowly I'm getting back into that routine again. My issues was I would wake up at night, wide awake and it would be difficult to go back to sleep. So this would result in me sleeping a-lot during the day - taking naps on my breaks at work and when I would come home. Another thing I was going through was feeling nauseous. While I was eating or soon after. So that made eating less fun than it normally is. And lastly today I had a pretty strange dream, my doctor said that was a side effect of this medication. It was pretty detailed and long, so I won't go into all of that. But the last few days I've been feeling somewhat better. Still very sleepy, but that's a side effect of this drug. I'm hoping it goes down since I feel like I'm already tired enough these days.

And after I talked to my doctor about my mood going through ups and downs and my emotions all a wreck a week to two weeks before my period I learned about something called PMDD - Premenstrual dysphoric disorder. After reading up on it a bit more, I found out this was similar to my struggles during this time. And now with my thyroid working property I wonder if the two may be connected somehow, with my hormones and all? I've noticed the last few months this past summer and fall were pretty bad for me with my moods and depression. Here is a link to PMDD if anyone is curious about it:
